Henry Repeating Arms Honors America’s 250th with a Collector-Grade Rifle Collection

Leave a comment

Henry Repeating Arms, one of America’s leading firearms manufacturers, is now shipping the America’s 250th Anniversary Tribute Edition Collection: three collector-grade lever-action rifles to mark the nation’s 250th anniversary of independence.

The collection includes two offerings of the H1 .22 S/L/LR, one full-size and one youth model, and an H10 chambered in .45-70 Gov’t. Each rifle in the collection shares the same defining features: a waving American flag rendered in full-color red, white, and blue Cerakote applied to a nickel-plated receiver, Fancy-grade American walnut selected for grain and figure, a polished nickel-plated buttplate, and a 250 anniversary logo engraved and silver-filled in the corner of the buttstock.

“Every firearm we build is a testament to our love of this country,” said Anthony Imperato, Founder and CEO of Henry Repeating Arms. “The lever-action was designed here over 160 years ago, and it has never stopped being a part of the American story. The 250th anniversary is an occasion worth marking properly, and we built this collection to do exactly that.”

The three rifles in the collection are:

H001TL-250 | America’s 250th Anniversary Tribute Edition Rifle .22 S/L/LR
Built on the H1 Frontier Rifle platform, one of the most respected rimfire lever-actions ever made, this full-size Tribute Edition features a 20-inch blued steel octagon barrel, fully-adjustable sights, and a large loop lever. Capacity is 16 rounds of .22 LR.

H001Y-250 | America’s 250th Anniversary Tribute Edition Youth Model .22 S/L/LR
The Youth Model carries the same finish, materials, and craftsmanship as the full-size Tribute Edition in a shorter, lighter profile suited to younger enthusiasts and those who prefer a more compact rifle. Features a 16.5-inch round blued barrel and 13-round LR capacity.

H010BG-250 | America’s 250th Anniversary Tribute Edition Rifle .45-70 Gov’t
The flagship of the collection, built on the H10 platform and chambered in .45-70 Government, a cartridge that has been part of American firearms history since 1873. The receiver is nickel-plated hardened brass. Features a 22-inch blued steel octagon barrel, large loop lever, sling swivel studs, and is drilled and tapped for optics. Capacity is 4 rounds.

The America’s 250th Anniversary Tribute Edition collection is available through authorized Henry dealers nationwide. To find a dealer or view the full collection, visit HenryUSA.com.

FPC Fights Trump DOJ Effort to Gut Landmark Second Amendment Victory

Leave a comment

Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) filed its opening brief with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit in Reese v. ATF, challenging the district court’s denial of complete relief after FPC prevailed against the federal age-based handgun and ammunition purchase ban.

The plaintiffs include FPC, the Second Amendment Foundation, and the Louisiana Shooting Association. The plaintiffs are represented by David H. Thompson, Peter A. Patterson, and William V. Bergstrom of Cooper & Kirk, PLLC, as well as George J. Armbruster III of Armbruster & Associates, APLC.

The brief was filed with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, based in New Orleans, Louisiana.

The Fifth Circuit already held that the federal age-based handgun ban is unconstitutional. On remand, the district court limited relief to the Fifth Circuit and to people who were members of the plaintiff organizations at the time of the order. But the Trump DOJ has gone even further, arguing that the plaintiffs should receive no meaningful injunction at all and that relief should be limited to a narrow, shrinking group of people. FPC filed this brief to secure complete relief for its members and prevent the government from continuing to enforce unconstitutional laws.

“The Trump Administration is fighting as hard as it can to continue violating the Second Amendment rights of millions of Americans. Even though the Fifth Circuit already held that these bans are unconstitutional, the government is trying to limit the decision’s reach so it can keep disarming peaceable adults across the country.

FPC Files Reply Brief in Lawsuit Challenging Illegal Savannah, Ga. Gun Control Law

Leave a comment

Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) filed a reply in support of its motion for summary judgment in Morris v. Savannah, its lawsuit challenging a City of Savannah, Georgia firearm storage ordinance that is patently unlawful under the State’s comprehensive firearm preemption law.

FPC is joined in the litigation by Deacon Morris, an FPC member. The plaintiffs are represented by attorney John R. Monroe of John Monroe Law, P.C.

The brief was filed in Chatham County Superior Court in Georgia.

The brief was filed on June 18, 2026. The Court will now either decide the motion on the papers or scheduled oral arguments.

Preemption laws like Georgia’s exist to prevent peaceable gun owners from having to navigate a minefield of ordinances that could result in fines and jail time. The state’s law applies to all local jurisdictions, including Savannah. Read more

DNR checks in on inland fisheries with lake and stream surveys

Leave a comment

Contact: Jim Francis, 517-242-3593

A Department of Natural Resources crew conducting a stream survey on Highbanks Creek in Barry County.If you were out on the water last year, you might have noticed something interesting: crews with nets and measuring boards, catching and documenting fish. In 2025, Michigan Department of Natural Resources fisheries management units completed more than 350 fisheries surveys across the state. Staff completed 225 surveys of inland lakes and 127 surveys of streams.

“The fisheries management units performed inland fisheries surveys to evaluate if management actions, like fish stocking or habitat improvement projects, had the desired effect,” said Jim Francis, DNR Fisheries Division Lake Erie basin coordinator. “Survey data helps us understand whether our management actions resulted in better recreational fishing in certain areas or improved the overall health of a lake or stream.”

These surveys help track inland fisheries populations, evaluate stocking efforts to increase angler opportunities or address concerns from the public, all of which is critical for effectively managing the state’s diverse fisheries. Read more

With more than 100,000 people in total applying every year to hunt bear and elk, the $5 applications are wildly popular.
